Whether you’re a professional in the field or an environmentally conscious individual, Upgreen offers a user-friendly platform to implement flora effectively.
Plant Database
For Upgreen I created a plant database containing detailed attributes for each plant species. This database is the backbone of the application, providing users with valuable information to make informed decisions about plant selection and placement. Upgreen categorizes filters based on general traits and their relevance to human needs, allowing users to define their objectives, whether it’s creating a biodiverse habitat, enhancing air quality, radiation protection, medical needs or even a good-vibe atmoshere.

The App
Upgreen’s key feature is to generate tailored flora compositions based on user-defined criteria. By inputting parameters such as population size and specific needs like radiation protection or food production, Upgreen offers curated plant combinations to meet these requirements. It provides the required area in square meters and and total number of plants. Moreover, Upgreen provides insights into individual plant species, including scientific names, descriptions, sunlight requirements, and recommended planting densities.
Flora compositions
The app provides five categories of flora compositions: Radiation protection, Food production, Air purification , Good-vibe atmosphere, and Medicinal Needs.
Development
The project was developed with Git, GitHub, GitHub Desktop, VisualStudioCode, Javascript, Vue, Three, and RhinoCompute.
